I suspect this is true of most, if not all, genuinely intelligent people on the left. Any intellectual honesty or integrity leads one inescapably to the conclusion that DJT will be much better for the country than the continuation of this chitshow.
So what other things am I hearing about Donald Trump that are actually not true, right?For pretty much my entire life, the wages of workers were stagnant. Corporate profits were going up, and the size of the government was going up. There was a four-year period when workers' wages outpaced the size of government and corporate profits. It's the four years that Donald Trump was President. And I think that we have to, like, give some credit to where it's due. The policies actually work.If you go into the presidency, saying, I don't think Donald Trump's going to be a good president, and then, lo and behold, he's the best president, at least in a generation, it's like, Okay, time to change my mind, admit to myself, but also to all the people who listen to me, I was wrong about Donald Trump. He was a hell of a good president.I think that what doesn't make sense is the idea that Trump is more motivated by grievance than he is by the public interest. He's actually much more motivated by the public interest. That's the truth."
